i just want to vent. i have met allot of nsxowners in clearwater/tampa fl. All have been friendly and act like a special nsx family, they wave as u pass them andjust show respect.i have lunch with a couple nsx owner who i did not know, and was given advice with my futer plans for my car, which i have had 3 months. this is what i expect from nsx owners. we r a special breed of people with a classy car and should act like. But of coarse u have those that r not. i have seen this person on a few ocassions. the first time i wave with no response, the second time he rev his engine at the light we sat at, ander the third time he pulled up next to me and acted like a fool trying to encourage me to race him at 4 in the morning while i was driving home from a bar. every one i have spoken with in the area has told me a negative story about him and have even seen negative post about his unethical sales of parts on this site. i am 28 own my own house paid for my own 96 nsx with 17000 miles on it i have (not a salvage title car from what i heard this peron has),and work hard to get where i am. i was not given my car by my parents, every one in the area probally knows who i am talken about i am sure because the imatureness and lack of class this person shows , and probally feel the same why i do. appreciate what u have been given and and act with some class. just because u have been fortanate enought that your family has money does not mean u cant act modest and relize how lucky u r. i know it can be done because i grew up in your position, i thank god for it and know how lucky iwas to be raised with money, but the diffrence between us is, i became a man and worked hard to get where i am now, and did it on my own. try it and u will respect yourself and what u have allot more, and gain other peoples respect. just my thoughts and have nothing against this person, just wish he could act like the rest of the other nsx owners i have met and talked to.
ps. i know u dont usually valet at clubs u dont have to where u have the option to park yourself, but at least tip the valet when u do have to, the reason i say this is they asked if knew u and bitch about it to me. guess they did it because they know about the nsx family and figured i we were friends

well i was wrong about stu:(

I have only met one owner that I didn't think to highly of after talking with them for a couple of minutes. I had only emailed them and after meeting, well I was saddened by his 'tude.
On the other hand, EVERYONE else has been absolutely wonderful and pleasant and helpful to be with and around.
 
please don't tell me your talking about me!!!!!!
i pulled up next to you on 4th street and reveded it as i was passing you with your windows up (alittle hows it going buddy) you put your window down flicked your cigarette and nodded) that's it not once have i seen you since, so i figure your talking about someone else
i'm 26 years old have my own laundrymat business and have my own house which was just built
i know Mike at mike's auto body wel,l where your car was painted in the front and even complemented your car on how clean it was
like i said before i would be shocked if it was me but from what you've said it sounded like me.
by no means was i trying to race, hell i just came back from ybor mysel,f and i thought you kinda gave me a look of whatever and put your window back up
go figure, but yet im the bad guy:rolleyes: :rolleyes:
remind me not to wave or rev next to you next time:rolleyes: :rolleyes:
 
Slipn, I have never met you but I know Stu from NSX meets and late night 'drives'. I know it is him you are bad mouthing.
First off I think it is in very poor taste to bad mouth his car as a salvage, what bearing does that have on a personality conflict? and you are bagging on him pretty hard.
Second, Stu was not 'givin' his car he works very hard for what he has. and as for the shape of the car it is not only well maintained it is one of the fastest non S/C turbo cars I know of.PLEASE keep our local scene out of the forum when it comes to petty stuff.
I just happened to invite STU out to gandy tonight as well as greg with the fast blk S/C car with short gears. why dont you meet up with us at the racetrac station on gandy around 11 tonight. come with an open mind and I think you and STU will get along just fine. plus I have not met you yet and I always enjoy meeting a fellow NSX'R (we CAN all get along :) if you dont make it lets get together soon,I think it would be good for all partys.lastly I think you misjudged Stu's actions-intent, he really is a solid decent guy.
Best Regards David
PS PEACE to all NSX brothers!

David,
That is one of the nicest things anybody has said to me. I truly do appreciate that. I would love to come down sometime and get togther and maybe catch a ball game or hit Busch Gardens. I will be back up and running in about a week now. I am so excited I just about can't contain myself.

Hey Stu, Remember me? We've raced across the howard franklin bridge, I was in my old car 300Z. You thought I had NOS, cause I blew right by you. You seem a little cocky, but you're alright. You got a nice car. By they way, I was wondering if you have your OEM wheels, are they chrome?

sorry i don't have my old wheels.
what car was i in when you blew by me?
i never raced a 300zx that beat me that i remember
i used to have a 300zx stage 4
maybe i wasn't racing or maybe your car is fast and i wasn't spraying or something because the set up i have now i beat 600-750 horsepoer supras:)
talk to ya later

Hey Stu,
It was a couple months ago. You were in your NSX yellow. Probably before you got your NOS, cause Mike at Crown Acura told me your car is hooked up now. Well you pulled up next to me.. you revved up. I was smoking a blunt at the time and stuck it out the window to show you I wasn't in the mood to race. But you dropped a gear so hard (probably into 3rd) i thought you were going to throw a rod. Well after you took off.. I had to do something about it.. so I dropped a gear and flew by you around 145. Your passenger was sticking his head out the window trying to smell my fumes when i slowed down for you to catch up. No race gas or NOS.. just 93 octane. You took off again.. I took off. It was a good head to head race.. our cars were about even. You weren't pulling me in.... I wasn't pulling away, Just ahead by a couple car lenghts. It was a nice race. I'll see ya around.

My black NSX is still stock for now.
 
hmmmmmm...................i honestly don't remember that.
what color is your Z?
ionly reason i say this is there is only 2 cars that i've reced that beat me and neither we're Z's
we're we going towards tampa or st. pete?
couple of months ago a did have the NOS so something isn't right
anyway glad to here you came to your sence's a got an NSX you'll love it.
i remember having my Z and raced all the time then i raced a red NSX and got worked the worst part is a lady was driving the NSX

92 NSX,
street racing is dangerous on busy streets etc. but on an empty bridge it's o.k. IMO, but thats a whole nother topic.
 
slipnby - i think you embarrassed yourself with your whiney post. Live and let live.
 
nsxrox, i posted this because i took stu and i"s few encounters the wrong way. i called stu after this post and apoligized and talked a feew times and plan on getting together since we worked
out everything. i relized he is cool and just has a fast car, i have also talked to mr nitros himself badcarma many times. this post was written do to the fact that i thought stu was cocky because i was driving a bone stock car and he is heavaly moded and took it that he was showing off. and did not expext this from another nsx r. am i embarrasssed no whiney no,i was just expressing how i felt at the time, it made me feel like i was in a vette,lol maybe u will get the chance to see what it feels like in a few months. i will be back home in baltimore in a few months for a months vacation. by then my car will be completly finished and plan on getting together with rob and taking some joy rides. and even though i am not one to rev my motor to another nsxr because i feel we r like a family. i think from your post i would consider doing it if i came across u on the rode so u could see my point of view, and how i felt, so watch out for a white nsx t with lots goodies on it as.bone stock or modified we should respect each other for the fact we all have one of the greatest cars ever made. stu, dave i will call u guys today, i am getting some of my mods tomm. 18/19 3 piece, tien coilovers,taitec headers, and u bboth know my last secret mod

just part of a family,
mike
